Genel begins the process of returning staffing levels to normal in KRI

Genel Energy says that, following a significant improvement in the security situation in the border region of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq ('KRI'), the Company has begun the process of returning staffing levels to normal. This follows the temporary and precautionary step of withdrawing non-essential personnel from non-producing assets.

Genel's primary consideration is the safety and wellbeing of our employees. The decision to resume full operations has been made following a close monitoring of the situation, and in consultation with the Kurdistan Regional Government, Foreign and Commonwealth Office of the British Government, and other well-placed authorities.
